Hey, just want to write a quick update after this very tiring day.
I finally got back from my place where I received my first furniture batch. I slept at David’s last night because as I don’t have a Canadian phone number yet, I gave David’s number to the delivery guys and they were supposed to [...]

First Ikea week-end over

Live from the laundry room
March 1, 2008
Hahaha ! Guess what, I can get the Wifi signal of my apartment right from the laundry room, one floor under me ! That’s just sweet, I can blog while I’m waiting for the machines to stop spinning.
Anyway, I finally got the keys of my new place and I spent my Saturday afternoon at Ikea. [...]
Things will finally settle down soon
February 26, 2008
Hello boys and girls,
I know it’s been a while since I last wrote something there (it seems like every blog post I write starts pretty much like this), but I think I’m finally settling down in my new life over here.
Work is getting good, while still a bit fuzzy sometimes but trying my best to [...]
First week over
February 16, 2008
Hey there, here I am writing this blog post from my bed, slacking off after my first week as a Montrealer.
So what happened since my last post, something like 5 days ago ? Well, on Tuesday, just as planned, I met up in the morning with the lady from Royal Lepage Relocation, who drove me [...]
First week-end and first day at work
February 11, 2008
Hello everyone, here’s a quick update on my whereabouts in Montreal during the last 3 days.
This week-end I tried to kill some time by walking around in my neighborhood. First on saturday afternoon, I went for a quick walk on Ste Catherine (as always). Just like this summer, the problem in my apartment is that [...]
Cloverfield == impressive
February 8, 2008
Actually I found very good motivation. I checked my favorite cinema (Famous Players on Ste Catherine) to see what was on and saw Cloverfield at 7:35 PM. So I figured out I could just run there and grab a bite at the Tim Hortons inside.
So what about this very hyped movie, produced by J.J. Abrams, [...]
Hello Canada
February 8, 2008
I made it !
I finally arrived at my temporary place in Montreal after a long flight (7.5 hours) but not so much trouble with the customs/immigration. The appartement is nicer than the one I had this summer. The TV is (logically) in front of the bed, so it might be (a little) more useful this [...]
Good bye France
February 8, 2008
Hi everyone!
Here I am at the airport, waiting for boarding, blogging from my phone. I just got out of the duty free shops where I did my usual perfume and cigarettes refill. I also bought a AC adaptor because I was unable to find mine at home. And since I’m going abroad for a (very) [...]
File -> New Life
February 6, 2008
Some might say that every 6 months or so, I create a new website/blog, and I have to admit it, it’s true.
But today is no normal day. In a few hours from now, I’ll finally be leaving Paris, flying across the Atlantic all the way to Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I’ve been dreaming about this moment [...]
